What happened to that shy, unsocialized doggie that turned up at the Shelter a few months ago? Neglected and scared, Uno clung to his pal Bailey, terrified. Today he is healthy and loves everyone. He cant wait to go for a walk then romp in the yard. An active family would keep Uno busy and allow him to live life to the fullest. Such a sweet, loving fellow - do you need a new friend?If you would be interested in giving me a furever home, please contact The Humane Society of Adams County, Inc. at (937) 544-8585 to set up a time to come meet me and fill out an adoption application!

Story
Needing to rehome our precious Remy girl - a Pitbull terrier mix. We rescued her about 3 years ago from a shelter in Oregon. Remy is a sweet, cuddly queen of the castle who would prefer a home with single adults OR older, more experienced children. She is super active and would enjoy a running buddy or plenty of outdoor space to run around and explore. Remy does have some anxiety and will tear up bedding/blankets if left alone. She's also very strong, so a heavy-duty kennel is a must. For the most part she does well with new friends, but it takes awhile for her to warm up, as she's very protective of her people and her space. She's been professionally trained, is up-to-date on her shots, is spayed, house-trained, and an overall a sweetpea.

🐾 Meet Apache - The Social Brindle Wonder! 🌈Apache isn't just a pup; he's a 61-lb bundle of joy with a brindle coat and a heart full of love ready for a forever home! 🐕💖🌟 Social Butterfly: Apache is the life of the party! He's social, friendly, and always ready to make new friends, whether they're human or canine. 🎉👫🐾🌈 Brindle Beauty: With his unique brindle coat, Apache is not just charming; he's a visual delight! His coat is as special as his personality. 🌈🐶 We believe Apache is possibly a boxer/catahoula mix dog. ***We do not know this dog's breed and are only speculating based on physical features and/or personality traits. 🧠 Intelligent Explorer: Apache is not just about looks; he's brains and beauty. His intelligence makes every adventure exciting, as he's always ready to explore and learn new things. 🌍🧠👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Kid-Friendly: Apache is a family dog through and through. He adores people of all ages, especially kids. His gentle nature makes him an ideal companion for family fun. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦💕Apache is the ultimate fun-loving companion to have in your home! 🏡 He absolutely adores trips to the dog park and playing with his furry friends. 🐾 Despite his boundless energy, Apache transforms into the perfect cuddle buddy after a good play session. 😊This pup is a seasoned traveler too! 🚗 He rides comfortably in the car for over an hour, enjoying the scenery and occasionally sticking his head out the window. 🌟 At home, Apache is laid-back and great with kids of all ages—he's truly a gentle soul. 👧👦Apache loves exploring the great outdoors and strolling around the neighborhood with his favorite humans. 🌳🐾 He's a quick learner and mastered the wireless fence in no time. Plus, he's crate trained, house trained, and has a playful obsession with toys! 🎾🙅‍♂️ Feline-Free Zone: While Apache loves many, he's not a fan of felines.
